“Officially the Best Place in Thailand!”

“Officially the Best Place in Thailand!” The first place that does exactly what its says on the Tin!! The room was exactly as it was portrayed on the net (a first for us!) The comfiest bed, pillows to die for and to prove it the only lie-in we have had in 7 Months of travelling (we usually rush to get out of our hotels!!) We have had the worst luck ever with other places but every problem we came across, Tim the owner was there to sort it out, I don’t know what we would have done without his patience, friendliness and valuable advice!! The AKWA Guesthouse is small enough for the personal touch, all the staff knowing and greeting you – (even if you’re a mile away from the hotel they recognise you!) Only bad point I have to make is a big one – MY DIET IS RUINED!! The breakfast, which is included, is the Best, we are British and we know our breakfasts!! The great thing is the variety, freshness and being able to be flexible and what you eat (no alarm at 6am to get it while you can!) We would stroll down when we were ready to eat not when we were told to! The location is fantastic, far enough away from the noise but close enough to have a night out and only 30 baht to get home. That is if you can drag yourself out of AKWA. The hotels DVD library takes some getting through – ideal if it rains or you just want to relax, lie in bed, order some food and watch a great film. We WILL be back and WE WILL be telling everybody we know about this place. If you’re reading this and your not going to book – more fool you – it’s the biggest mistake you’ll ever make!! Thank you Tim and the Staff for such a wonderful time in Samui!! You have 2 friends for life…… Hasta la vista mi amigo!!! Emma and Marcus …. England Well where do I start. What a Place!! The Rooms are very classy with great artwork, with nice canvasses. Also in the room you have a manual which covers every thing you which to know about Koh Samui and I mean “EVERYTHING” Tim is fantastic, he is so helpful, our time in Samui would have been ruined without Tim’s help, advice and general friendliness. The breakfast included kept me going all day. The Orange Juice is to die for. I believe that Tim knows exactly what holidaymakers want with the 8 feather pillows on the bed, Radio, MP3 Player, and DVD Player. We have been travelling 7 Months and I’ve also been to a lot of countries, and AKWA is up there with the best! I will be letting every body know about AKWA Guesthouse. The worst thing about it is we have to leave. “This is definitely my home away from home” Great Place, Great Staff, Thanks a lot Tim 9the best Aussie we have met) Marcus Jones and Emma England
